ABOUT THE
EDUCATORS INSTITUTE
Duke School's Educators Institute brings educators from around the world together to learn about project-based learning and innovation. We welcome preschool, elementary, and middle school teachers, curriculum specialists, and school administrators. Our offerings include virtual and on-site consulting at schools tailored to the school’s needs. Our on-site institutes are the hallmark of our work. Participants visit classrooms to observe project work in action, as well as learn from institute leaders and from other schools engaged in project work. To ensure the safety of our children, staff, and participants, however, we will offer our November 2021 institute virtually. Please read more about our offerings under the Institutes tab above.
WHAT PEOPLE ARE SAYING

"A very warm and welcoming school. The focus on project-based learning in conjunction with core conceptual knowledge has impressed me and has been very insightful. Small class size, individual attention and committed teachers will surely make Duke School students stand out in the world in
times to come."
